Lord, you are gracious, you are good, we want to be more like you; please show us the way.

O God, whose glory it is to always have mercy, be gracious to all who have gone astray from your ways, and bring them again with penitent hearts, and steadfast faith, to embrace and hold fast the unchangeable truth of your Word, Jesus Christ your Son, who with you and the Holy Spirit lives and reins, one God, for ever and ever. Amen (BCP)
